Ingredients
Scale
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 cup sour cream
1 cup mayonnaise
1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (10 ounce) can Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies, drained
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 packet (1 ounce) taco seasoning mix
1/2 cup fresh or frozen corn kernels (optional, for texture)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking dish or a small oven-safe skillet.
In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth.
Stir in the drained canned corn, drained Rotel, Monterey Jack cheese, cheddar cheese, and the entire packet of taco seasoning. If you are using extra fresh or frozen corn kernels, mix them in now.
Spread the mixture evenly into your prepared baking dish.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the dip is hot throughout and the edges are lightly golden.
Let the dip rest for 5 minutes before serving warm with tortilla chips or crackers.
Notes
For a slow cooker version, combine all ingredients and cook on low for 2 hours or high for 1 hour, stirring halfway through.
To keep this cheesy corn dip melty on the buffet, transfer the baked dip to a small slow cooker set to the ‘Keep Warm’ setting.
If you want a little extra heat, add 1/4 cup of diced jalapeƱos along with the Rotel.
